and keep it off. It's time to climb into the powerball department. Powerball
up to nine hundred and seventy five million dollars. No jackpot winner in the
drawing this past weekend, so nine to seven five is the number. If
the jackpot had a winner, that person would have been able to walk away
with four hundred and fifty two million bucks in cash. So it'll be up
to four hundred and seventy one man anyway, So it's it'd be very interesting
to see where all of that goes. Now, let's get into some presidential
stuff here. There is a teacher in Texas who's running for president. This
person's name is this person's legal name is literally anybody else. So when anybody
says they want literally anybody else to run, here's the guy. Really anybody
else now is running, right yep. Joe Biden, Donald Trump, Robert
F. Kennedy Junior, and literally anybody else. The seventh grade math teacher.
He is from North Richland Hills, Texas. So James. Where is
that. I always have a feeling that some of these stories like this pop
up. Yeah that's the Metroplex. Yeah, yeah, that's what I thought.
Anyway, he legally changed his name to literally anybody Else with the intention
of running for president as an independent candidate. So here he said, quote,
for too long, Americans have been victim of the political parties putting party
loyalty over government. As well, He's not wrong there, He continues to
say, together, let's send the message to Washington say you will represent the
people or be replaced. And so you can go to his website, literally
anybody else go to the website. He says America should not be stuck choosing
between the King of debt. He talks about Biden that with that phrase,
and then he's got other things that are not very nice to say about Trump
that those are easy to find as well. So anyway, the point is
he secured the literally anybody else dot Com domain name. He's been selling t
shirts and apparently this started as sort of a joke, but now he's become
very serious about you know, he didn't change his name, that's not a
joke. Yeah, right exactly. So anyway, he needed one hundred and
thirteen thousand signatures to get on the ballot for the primary May thirteenth. So
James, just for the heck of it, will you keep your eye on
this and you can be our reporter on the scene. And I'm wondering,
because you do some newswork on one of the stations in Dallas over the weekend,
what is anybody paying attention to this guy? I would think this would
be you could have the scoop. You should be on the air, You
should interview this guy. I know what. That is a great call.
I'm going to run up there right now to the new studios. Yeah,
all right, see there we go, folks. You can count on us
here, all right. So what other presidential stuff is going on? Trump's
immigration rhetoric is making inroads with Democrats because he's right. You know, there
are a lot of things about Trump you can say that he's wrong in the
over I think even some of the stuff that he says, the anti immigrant
claims that he comes up with are not really true, much of them,
but they still are making inroads. Or those statements may or may not be.
But the other statements that are true, you don't need Trump to underscore
it, but he's taking advantage of, as any good politician does, of
public sentiment. The public is sick of this, if that the right word
to use. I don't like using the phrase sick and tired. But the
upset that is caused by this, I mean, there's so many things that
are wrong. It is it's craziness that this goes on. And there are
a lot of middle of the road Democrats moderates who look at Biden as the
problem, and he is the problem. Well, he's the problem our side.
The problem is the Mexican problem is a problem in all of this.
Yes, that's the right way to put it. He's a problem in this
system that we have that is so messed up. That is just I mean,
when you talk about it, it doesn't make sense to We all know
what the problem is, and we all know that it needs to be corrected,
and we all know that it hasn't been corrected, and we all know
that it's gotten much worse since Biden was president. So Trump hammering away.
They're coming in by the thousands every single day. You realize what that does,
you know, I'm looking around at the unemployment rate for some of the
major industrial states in the country. Even though the federal data shows that the
unemployment rate's gone up a point or two. Well, when I say a
point, it was three point six or seven I think in January February numbers
are now three point nine percent. That still is kind of low. Well,
that's actually where normally when we have a good economy, that's where the
unemployment number is. So but you look at some of the industrial states,
the rate has ticked down in the last month, and that's you know,
the trend is hard to put your finger on, because the jobless rate in
some states is higher, and the jobless rate in some states. Let's see,
I'm looking at the stats here. Now, this rate increased from a
year ago in twenty eight states during the month of February, not much.
And let's see here that's twenty three or twenty four states saw no change.
And then there are other states that were down. Where I am in Massachusetts,
for example, is down two tenths of a percentage. But in terms
of the overall language, the average in the industrial states is two point nine
percent. The biggest problem is in areas, the farming areas. Although North
Dakota have the lowest jobblish rate of any state two point one percent. And
then of course there's California had the highest unemployment rate five point three percent.
What would this the state of California. What a beautiful state and it's getting
ruined by these knuckleheads who are you know, they're in league with Biden when
it comes to the to the all the illegals. And one of the problems
in Californe is all the illegals come in and they take the jobs, the
low paying jobs. Same thing all of the states that have a problem.
And this is why I underscore this whole thing about immigration, because the states
that have the worst unemployment record at the moment are the places where there are
more unemployed, more illegals than anyplace else. Nevada is five point two percent,
New Mexico five percent, Arizona five point one percent. Right, these
are all the states that are on the Mexican border that are inundated by people
coming in here and taking away legitimate jobs from allegit from you know, I'm
gonna say real Americans, but people who are here that are born here and
are here legally, or people that have gone through the process. This is
disgusting. Rhode Island is down to one point one percent. So look at
the difference, and further away you are from the border, the better the
under ployment rate. Am I the only one who's looking at these numbers and
figuring this out. Think about it. The jobless rate is going down.
The problem that is the numbers of people who are out of work are lower
in Rhode Island, Maine, Montana, Alaska, you know, places like
that. So anyway, New Jersey I just find and let's see Wyoming in
Oregon are down. Let's see here Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, and Texas
they have they're a little bit more than they're up, but not a whole
lot. Anyway, My point here is that the unemployment rate is directly tied
to the illegal immigration rate. And how it is that we you know,
that's why guys like this fella who's literally anybody else you know, he's going
to make traction. That's why Kennedy and I can't imagine Joe Biden winning this
election given this. Even though they're spending they have many as they raised what
was it last week with Clinton and Obama? He had a fundraiser raised twenty
million bucks at Radio City View disgusting, disgusting. I honestly, it's one
of those things. I don't know which way it's going to go because so
many people aren't voting for the person. They're voting for their party, regardless
of who that can it actually is. And I think that if literally anybody
else makes it fully to the ballot come November, a lot of people may
not know who this person is, that it's an actual person, and it
may just, you know, tick that one be like okay, yep,
literally anybody else let's go yeah, yeah, and that's it'll be interesting to
see. Yeah, right, it is. It's just the fact that it's
going on, the fact that we have this problem is that's I use the
term disgusting because it is disgusting. It really is. So we're focused here
on celebrity trending names, and Jay has found that there's a lot of attention
being given to Kate Beckhamsale bec and Sale Beckensall. How do you pronounce her
last name? No, she is Beckham Sale. She's always looked awfully pale
and thin to me, and apparently she's been in a hospital bed for three
weeks. A lot of health concerns, so there are a lot of her
fans and people that are interested in what's going on the photos that she's posted,
et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. She's fifty years old,
But what's going on with her? Wasn't she engaged to Orlando Bloom or was
she married to him? Do I remember that? Michael Sheen? Oh,
all right, Michael Sheen looks Michael Sheen looks another British actor, looks just
like David Frost. And so if you remember he was, He's played a
lot of interesting roles and so has she. So what the heck is the
matter with her? Why is she in the hospital? Why has she been
there for three weeks? Wrong questions? Yeah, she's been very open about
the fact that she's in the hospital. She first alerted people to the fact
that she was in the hospital the day after UK Mother's Day. She was
celebrating her mom's belated birthday UK Mother's Day and posted a carousela photos which some
included her sitting in the hospital bed with like this big bow on her head
and everything and crying, tears coming down her eyes. And then recently for
Easter, she showed her feet which had bunny socks on clearly still in the
hospital bed. She hasn't said what is going on. It's kind of like
some mystery illness. But what keeps coming to my mind is there was another
actress who spent the first few weeks of the year in the hospital and she
didn't acknowledge anything until she was out of the woods at least. But Ashley
Park she had tom solitis that turned into septic shock and she was in the
hospital for a very long time in condition. And the once she was,
you know, doing a lot better but still in the hospital, she started
to acknowledge it a little bit more, and when she was home she started
talking about it more. So. I kind of wonder if there's some situation
like that with Kate going on or I'm sure she's since she's been open enough
to say she's in the hospital, I'm sure she'll eventually open up what's going
on. But oh, I hope she's okay. I hope she gets out
of the hospital soon. Yeah, you look at this, You know what
there is here is a lesson for everybody to pay attention to your body.
That's you know, know what's going on in your body, and respect your
body because your body what's the old expression about being a temple. You need
to make it a temple of love and light and not a temple of doom.
All right, words of advice from the dugger. So it's great business

so how do you keep from making bad decisions? Well, the simple answer
to that is you don't use bad information to make bad decisions. But the
question now becomes, and it's more and more a question every day, how
we get information? How do we know whether it's good or bad? So
if you don't get good information, you can't make good decisions. And there
are a lot of people, you know, I mean, I suppose there
have been circumstances in my workplace where I have fallen for this, somebody comes
to me and says that someone else has done this, that or the other
thing, and I've taken action on only to find out that the employee didn't
tell me the truth, tell me all the information. The employee had an
agenda. You know, there's something And that's a simple example of making bad
decisions based on bad information. But the snowballs as you understand what's going on
now in the news media and how it is so it's so blatant. The
New York Times is the best or worst example of that, But there are
plenty of other newspapers. It seems to be more like you can do less
about it in print than you can on the electronic media. I don't know
why. I think maybe becomes I'm prejudiced. I'm on the electric Excuse me,
I'm on the electronic side of things. But you know, you can
see it and it stays there, whereas with the spoken word, you hear
it and it's gone right kind of. I mean, I feel like whenever
you're watching something and it's spoken, you hear the tone in the person who
is speaking. You hear that, where when you're reading something, any tone
you put on it is your own tone or your own perception, rather than
when Sthia is actually speaking. All right. So, as an example of
this, take the situation where in Israel there are a huge anti government protests
that have gone on a lot of apparently, according to some of the numbers
that I've seen, tens of thousands of people gathered outside the Parliament building.
Sunday is the first day of their week over there. Saturday is their holy
day, so Sundays they have sessions and most of this stuff is aimed at
getting the government to reach a deal with the Palestinians or no with Hummas really
to free a lot of hostages. There is a I don't know what we
did with the jay I'm trying to find it right now. The story of
this the how the Hamas terrorists are getting an award, oh true lance journalists
with with AP or a freelance photographer with AP who is not part of Hamas
but is with Hammas to document things. And there was a lot of even
when this photo was taken, there is a lot of question of it did
this photographer know what was going on? I believe AP said that they had
no idea what was going on, but then until it was already unfolding,
and then they captured photos of it. But it is just one of those
things where it's like this photo this is is getting in the wet. But
the Missouri School of Journalism, the oldest to photojournalistic competition is the one they
sponsored at their school, and they're giving this picture the Team Picture Story of
the Year award. This is disgusting, it's shocking. It's people are enraged
like you wouldn't believe when they look at this woman who's dead and naked in
the back of a truck. Well, this guy, here's the thing she
might not be naked this I think this is her outfit from the festival,
but it's yeah, she's in the back of a pickup truck. Her body
is, and then there's there's the guys that are in the tailgate with her,
and somebody's on the side of the truck and all of that. But
as outrage as people are, her name is Seanni Luke, and her own
father is defending the award because he's calling this a good thing, the photo
of his daughter's abduction. And here's why, because he says, this is
a historical image. There are these are there are symbols of an eras that
happen, and there are different things that we look back and photograph in the
photographical history and we see and it's like that is it showcases what really happened
in the torment And he feels like this photo as much as it's he's heartbroken,
but this will go down in history to show people and symbolize the devastation
of this era, the abductions, the killings. He is he is,
I mean, he's her father and he's defending this. Well, I don't
know. I'm having a hard time with it myself. Oh, I've talked
about it. Yeah, it's yeah, it's no sorry, no, sale
I think this is disgusting, frankly, but it's just more of the even
in Israel and all over the Middle East and the Europeans and here in America,
we have this sort of this imbalance of understanding of what's going on.
I don't we all understand that many innocents have been killed, That's what happens
in war. The Israelis didn't start this. Hamas started it. And it
wasn't even the Palestinian people, even though there is support among the Palestinians for
Hamas to a point. But this is Iran stirring the pot and so but
there still is this disconnect among many people, especially in the Middle East,
between the relationship that Iran has with this Hamas and Ezbelah and even these other
What the what's the group that's attacking the ships on the Red Sea? I
know we can remember it's another age group. It's not the hoodies, but
something clearly so yeah, no, I think it is. Yeah, So
I don't know, I just this is really I know, Well, in
the October seventh rampage, I mean, there are still hostages that have not
been released. They killed twelve hundred people, took two hundred and fifty three
hostages. A lot have been released, but there are still hostages that we
have no idea what their condition even is. So here's a question that needs
an answer in terms of food getting delivered to the people in the conflict zone.
How does the food get delivered? We saw it was it last week,
the week before when there was a big to do about. There was
a Palestinian there was a food truck that came in and people raised, you
know, they raced after it like a stampede situation. But how could it
not. These people are dealing with famine. They may be hours away from
death, days away from death if not eating, and there's only so much
on that truck, and there's more people than that food can feed. So
of course is going to be a stampede of people trying to at least get
something, especially any parents who have children that are dying of famine. But
without the historical perspective, Jay, if you go back to nineteen forty eight,
when after World War Two there was a Jewish state that was established,
they were all kinds of things that when this area was opened up to the
Jews from Germany and from Europe that had been the victim of hideous crimes.
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights that came from the United Nations as part of
the deal was Article twenty five. Not that that's important to the establishment of
the Jewish state. They had a right and what they'd gone through was unimaginable.
Have we forgotten about that? Do you think most of the people that
are protesting are people who are younger? I wonder to myself out loud often
whether we're not doing a good enough job explaining or historically pointing out what happened
during those years from the nineteen thirties through the mid nineteen forties. The six
million, not that it doesn't justify what's going on now, but it's an
educational point. It's a historical point. And so when it comes to the
food being delivered there, if you go back to not only the situation in
Israel, but you look in the Sudan, you look in Yemen, you
look in Haiti, you look in Ukraine, you look at Somalia, there
are millions of people who don't have any food. The suffering is unbelievable.
We don't even begin to imagine it. Even though we see some people in
our country are homeless and going through the horrors of not having enough to eat
that kind of stuff, we have, what ten million children in this country
go to bed hungry, But we don't have to fuss and fight to get
We know where the food is, just a matter of making it available to
people. But in these countries where the war is going on, you know,
the logistics of getting the aid into these places from various locations this time.
You know, if it's wintertime, this time of year is actually good
because the weather in most of these areas is much better. But I don't
know. I think it's something that we don't necessarily keep our minds on.
Keeping the supply chains safe and secure is a focus, But some of these
people have created circumstances that would make it impossible to get food to the areas
of conflict. But there are a lot of groups that are trying to logistically
make it happen. I know that there are farm groups here in America,
something I'll talk about this week on the American Family Farmer Program that are giving
food aid that sort of thing. The Farmer is the American Farm Bureau Federation
for example, the idea behind farmers giving things to aid and this is the
farmers in this country are very generous and they give a lot of food to
these exercises. You know, it's a question of how quickly can it get
moved to the places where it's needed without its spoiling, you know, all
of that sort of stuff. So it requires a good deal of logistical focus.
And like something just happens, it happens because people want it to have
and they work on making it happen. So I just I thought it would
be interesting to spend a minute to talking about how that happens. And and
certainly American farmers are a big help and all of that. Why is it
the older we get, it feels like a good quality sleep becomes harder and
harder to come by. It just becomes more difficult to get that well rested
look when you wake up in the morning because you're not really feeling well rusted.
My pillow can change that. As somebody who suffers from chronic illness,
sleep and quality sleep is really hard to come by. But here's the thing.
My pillow is probably one of my favorite items in my home. I
love mypellows. Pellow, it is one of those things where I can change
the shape of it to really create on my neck if that's what I'm needing.
The MyPillow pillow is just so incredible. But that's not all they are
known for. They have mattress toppers, they have down comforters, they have
blankets. It is like the quality sleep shop. I also have a pair
of my slippers. They are the most comfortable things. It is like walking

DS when you go to mypellow dot com. Some of the things that are
trending with names of celebrities being on the top of the list, and pretty
close to the top of the list is Barbara Rush. It may be that
some know who she is. Some people that are my age or younger will
remember her from the fifties, the sixties, the seventies. She was what
I would say, the star of many melodramas Jay She was a leading lady
in movies and television. She was in the Young Philadelphians. Passed away over
the weekend at the age of ninety seven. She was in Peyton Place and
if you don't remember, if you don't know, that's one of the that
was about as big as soap opera as has ever existed on television. She
also did a lot of sci fi stuff. Anyway, she was She had
a great life and died of old age at the age of ninety seven.
But if you look up her, many people listening, heay, I remember
that name, So just look up Barbara Rush and you'll come to an understanding
of who I'm talking about and what I'm talking about. All right, Coming
up next here on our celebrity focus on social Media, Dana Carvey's name is
also in the list. He's apologized. You know, most of the people
in SNL now are forgettable. Most people don't know who's there, and they
you know, there are a few names. I like the guy who's married
to Sharon, to Scarlett Johansson, what's his name? Michael Chesy, the
Weekend up to Hey. I like their stuff, especially when they prank each
other. Yeah, all right, Well, anyway, Dana Carvey has issued
an apology to Sharon Stone for a sketch that he hosted back in nineteen ninety
two to Sharon's don't even remember they're both about the same age, and so
he was talking about sketch comedy in general, and then she apparently was on
with him on a some show after she was in Basic Instinct, and there
was a skit that was created called It was an Airport Security sketch where Carvey
took the role of an Indian security guard. He and a group of officers
instructed Stone to remove pieces of her clothing in case she was carrying dangerous items.
I mean it was offensive, it was sexist, it was stupid,
but she played along with it. You know, she was used to I
guess taking your clothes off. Well, she instead because yeah. So he
has a podcast s Dana Carvey and David Spade, it's called Fly on the
Wall, and they were talking with her about that offensive sketch. He was
apologizing. He was like, you know, that's something that was in nineteen
ninety two where it was almost acceptable, even though it still technically was not
okay at the time. It would never fly now. And she said that
she actually wasn't even offended by the sketch. She thought it was humorous and
that there was way more other stuff going on in her life that was more
highly offensive that that skit did what didn't do it? Yeah the next A
